It's  great on slopes because it has the extendable tracks for more stability. Plus on most spiders you can set the legs out to hover just above ground level if you're worried about the gradient or on uneven ground. I took my old spider through brooks, up and down slopes, across boggy fields etc. Only time I nearly got into trouble was traversing across a slope in a churchyard which was particularly soft...always best to go straight up or down a slope if poss ?

Ive had a platform basket RQG18 for the past 3 years and I’ve got really used to what it can and can’t do, find myself climbing out of the basket on the big trees but all round an excellent energy saver! But I’ve now invested in a CELA DT25 spyder and I’ve got to say the difference is massive. Obviously the extra height reach is a bonus but the configuration of the booms to allow up and over is an absolute game changer. Also the fact that the basket is attached at the top means you can sink yourself down a little into the tips without worrying too much about catching a pipe or cable! Also the fact that there is no knuckle to worry about swinging and hitting stuff. It is also really compact at 800mm wide at its narrowest...I could go on and on!

Get in contact if you would like more info

Finally someone else in the tree world has bought one. Better just hope yours wasn't made on a Friday like mine turned out to be.Mines a DT24 which is an earlier model but is basically the same except for a different basket attachment arrangement.

We have had a lot of electronic problems
